Project Details
About
The purpose of this project is to increase capacity and enhance safety along U.S. 17/State Road (S.R.) 15 from south of Spring Street to Lake Winona Road. The project widens U.S. 17 from two lanes to four lanes to enhance mobility in the area. A new roundabout at the intersection of U.S. 17 and Spring Garden Avenue/Spring Garden Ranch Road is also being constructed to improve operations and safety.
This project also includes a multi-use trail from Spring Garden Avenue to Lake Winona Road and a new entrance into the Department of Forestry compound. This project is a portion of the overall project approved in the 2006 PD&E study to widen U.S. 17 to north of S.R. 40 (FPID No. 410251-1).
Another segment, project 410251-4, proposes to widen U.S. 17 from south of Winona Road to S.R. 40 and includes a new bridge over Deep Creek, as well as a wildlife crossing culvert.
